Extension for ‘Dus Ka Dum’ cancelled due to poor ratings

Salman Khan’s gameshow ‘Dus Ka Dum’, which was launched with much fanfare on Sony Entertainment Television, has failed to live up to expectations.

The show was expected to get an extension but the idea has been shelved due to its poor ratings, according to PinkVilla.

A source told the publication, “The team was earlier planning to extend the show by a few episodes. But the dwindling TRPs has changed their mind. Now it will end as per the scheduled date. There are a few rumours that KBC will be replacing the show on Sony. That is not yet decided. Since Mr. Bachchan hasn’t chalked out his dates for the same. It can be KBC or it can be some other show too.”

Another source added, “Salman Khan is yet to shoot for 6-7 episodes of Dus Ka Dum. He returns from his Dabangg tour this weekend and is scheduled to shoot with us on Monday. As per the contract, he will have to finish the decided number of episodes. Which celebrity will be coming for the shoot will be decided only on Sunday, once the shooting schedule is finalized.”
